Leonardo, who was in a daze looking at the statuette, was awakened by the applause, and then he remembered that there was still something he had not done.

He calmed down, held the statuette in his hands, and said tremblingly into the microphone:

"Thank you all! Thank you so much! Thank you Academy! Thanks also to all the other nominees for their incredible performances"

"《"The Departed" is the product of our entire team, the tireless hard work of our incredible crew. I'm honored to work with them"

"First of all thank you to my brother Martin Meyers, Martin you are an incredible guy. Next is director Martin Scorsese. Old Martin, you shot an amazing movie and gave me a better and deeper understanding of movies. You are proud of me! You are an unimaginable genius! Oh, and photographer Michael Balmus, thank you for your extraordinary photography! Thank you to everyone on the"Departed" crew and my personal team……"

"I want to thank Katie Jones, who was the casting director on my first movie, and Mr. Rich, for getting me into this. Next, I would like to thank my parents. Without you, this would not be possible. My friends, I love you, I believe you must know it in your heart"

"I want to make a digression. As you all know, I am a staunch supporter of environmental protection. I want us to stand up for leaders around the world, for those who don't defend pollution and those who don't speak up for big business. Even for all humanity, for all the people in the world, for the billions of poor and most affected people, for our children's children, for those whose voices are silenced by greedy politics!"

"Finally, I would like to thank everyone for sharing this wonderful award with me tonight. Let us not take it for granted that living in peace with this planet is a simple matter, and I do not think that my award today is Of course. I will definitely keep what I said tonight in mind. Thanks."

Applause broke out.

Leonardo walked off the podium.

"How is it, what does it feel like?"Martin asked his friend with a smile.

Leonardo was silent for a while and said:"It's a strange feeling. Before I got it (the statuette), I was extremely eager and eager for it, but after I got it, I felt... Kind of...well, how should I put it, that kind of……"

"Dull? Sage time? Martin interjected with a smirk.

Leonardo nodded seriously,"Indeed.""

Old Nelson, who was not far away, looked over and said,"If Old Martin hears what you say, he will definitely beat you."

Martin Scorsese, who was sitting next to Nicholson, suddenly said:"I can't, and I have a strong feeling that I can get it today."

"Nominated for Best Director at this year's Oscars:

Martin Scorsese——《"The Infinite Walker".

Clint Eastwood——《Letters from Iwo Jima.

Martin Meyers——《127 hours".

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarrido——《Tower of Babel".

Paul Greengrass——《Flight 93》"

Following the announcement by award presenter Francis Ford Coppola, there were exclamations and buzzing comments below.

For no other reason than because Martin was nominated for Best Director!

"Wow, a 21-year-old nominated for Best Director, he’s a record-breaker, right?"

"Probably yes, I remember the youngest nominee was John Singleton"

"You are right, it is John Singleton. He was nominated for the 64th Academy Award for Best Director in 1992 for directing his first film"Boys from the Block". He was only 24 at the time and was the youngest Oscar nominee for Best Director."

"If Martin won an award today, it would be big news"

"It's unlikely. It's time for old Martin to win the Best Director. Oscar owes him"

……

Amid the discussion, Francis Coppola on the stage opened the small card in his hand and smiled,"The winner is Martin Scorsese.——《The Departed Walker》"

On his seat, old Martin jumped up with faster movements than Leonardo, shaking hands and hugging people with great excitement. When he walked on the stage, he was already in tears.

"Congratulations, old man."

Francis Coppola and Martin Scorsese hugged each other gently and quickly handed over the statuette in a very considerate manner.

Martin Scorsese took the statuette with one hand and wiped it with the other hand. He shed tears and began to say his acceptance speech.

I don’t know if it was because he was too excited, but he spoke very fast, like a machine gun.

"Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! thank you francis"

"Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! Please, please"

"Thanks! Thanks! Can you check the envelope again? Did I really win the prize? I mean, I couldn’t control myself after receiving this award from the academy, and it was an honor given to me by an old friend of mine! We have been friends for 37 years"

"I'm so moved, so moved"

"I want to thank Meyers Films, thank you Martin Jr., you are the best!"

"Thank you Leonardo, thank you Matt (Damon), thank you Jack (Nicholson)——"

Jack Nicholson was complaining below,"Shet, this old guy actually put me behind Matt to thank you."

Martin said:"You are content, you are just a supporting role."

Martin Scoo on the stage Seth continued to thank, as if he was thanking all the crew members:"Thanks to our producers Drew Barrymore and Graham King, as well as Mark Brown, my old friend Joe Reddy, we We have worked together for 20 years"

"I would also like to thank Rick Yorn and John Lesher, Chris Donnelly and Ari Emmanuel……"(To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"The superb script adapted by Martin Jr. drove me crazy for the first time. The original film shot by Andrew Law in Hong Kong is a great Asian film......."

"The cinematography is by Michael Balmus and the music by Howard Shore is also very good. I also want to thank my old friend Thelma Schoonmaker"

"I also want to say thank you to those who have blessed me over the years. There are a lot of strangers here. You know, I used to walk down the street and people would say words of comfort to me."

"This happens when you walk into a doctor's office or anywhere. This will also happen when you take the elevator. People say you deserve an Oscar. I went to take X-rays, and the doctor also said to me, you should win an Oscar. I say thank you to them"

"Friends who have been with me for many years, as well as many friends who came to the scene tonight, all wish me to win this award. My family also does the same. I thank you. This moment is reserved for you"

"I also want to thank my daughter Kathy, who is here tonight and who also worked on this film. My wife, Helen, a Dominican, and our little daughter Francesca, who is only 7 years old this year, are watching the live broadcast on TV. Francesca, stay for another 10 minutes, then jump up and have a party at the hotel"

"Okay, I'll see you in the morning. Thanks!"

Thunderous applause.

Martin Scorsese has been pursuing an Oscar for more than 30 years, and today he finally got his wish.

Then, the most important Oscar award this year,"Best Picture", was also won by"The Departed".

Martin took the stage for the second time. , took the statuette from Jack Nicholson 1.2.

Yes, the presenter was this old guy.

Martin held the statuette and said into the microphone:

"I have already thanked those who deserve it. Although I know that the organizer wants me to talk a little longer so that they can earn more advertising fees, I decided to keep the story short."

"It makes me so happy to stand here and witness Martin Scorsese win the Oscar. This old guy has been waiting for so many years, and you finally followed his wishes"[]

"And Leonardo, this little guy finally got his wish. Just now he said below that he can finally ignore the old guys in the academy."

Leonardo in the audience smiled and raised his fist, causing a burst of laughter.

Martin smiled and said:"Leon, if you want to fight, let's make an appointment later. But for now, wait until I finish. Well, it seems like there’s nothing more to say, so that’s it. thank you all!"

Laughter and applause rang out.

(Brothers, please take care of me. Please give me some comments, flowers, collections, and rewards. Thank you.)
